I live in the metro Detroit area, and my family got me a Shinola Brakeman watch for Father's Day a few years ago. Fantastic product, and I've been very happy with it. I'm hopeful that they'll get me a Runwell turntable for this coming Father's Day, but there is a bit of a price difference (about $700 for the watch and about $2500 for the turntable). I agree the price seems high for what you get, but it is sexy and kinda local. All that said, I'll most likely be keeping my current rig.
